I'm not going to lie, I'm utterly disappointed. There, I said it. Jeaniene is one my favorite authors, and it pains me to say this, but I didn't like this book. I never felt that connection between the main characters, especially, from Vlad.

And the beginning was soooo slow. The plotline was practically not there, until half in the story. I am disappointed, but I still this author.

I will be looking at her other upcoming work. But this has left a sour bitter taste in my mouth.

Come on! Do I really have to say, how much I desire this book!? Jeaniene is one of my favorite authors, come on! I need this book so bad!

Vlad, he's so sexy, charming, has a sense of humor, and actually badass! Dear lord, I need this book now!

I don't know what's more of a disappointment- my horrendous cooking on Christmas day, or Into the Darkest Corner. With that being said, I'm a horribleI don't know what's more of a disappointment- my horrendous cooking on Christmas day, or Into the Darkest Corner. With that being said, I'm a horrible cook, so bad I'm even banned from cooking in own house.

So, when my burned Christmas cooking is better than this book, you know this book is just not good. First, of all there is the fact that I placed just a tad bit too much of hope on it. Then we have the problem where the beginning was far too slow.

One thing I will give Mrs. Haynes credit is that bastard piece of shit Lee. The first time he appeared, I wanted to punch him, then kick him in his balls, and burn him alive.

Another thing that bothered me was that Cathy was a Mary-sue. It was subtly at first, then it turn to full blast when Stuart appeared. Even after I finished reading the entire book, I still couldn't understand why Stuart loved Cathy. Was it because she was extremely beautiful that every single man wanted to get with her, or was it because she was the only available option in his life at the moment?

I'll also have to say that Cathy's OCD was interesting to read. In addition to that, Cathy's everyday paranoia and fear was done perfectly, and her lack of getting help was also done extremely well.

But the cons over weigh the pros. And there was some scenes where I deemed were completely unnecessary, and a bit boring.

The reason why I was SO angry wasn't only the fact that Lee was a complete bastard that deserved to burn in the deepest part of Hell, it was the fact that Sylvia(Cathy's suppose best friend) betrayed her by sleeping with her boyfriend, and if that wasn't enough, she lied to the court stating that she was suicidal, which caused Lee to walk away with only three years of a sentence.

What type of piece of shit can you be to actually do that, and to your 'best friend no less'. Then when they meet again, she is still with him. I'm not saying that she deserved it. NO WOMEN DESERVES TO BE BEATEN AND/OR RAPED. But, it pissed me off that during the point where Lee was being judged in court, she was NOT being beaten nor raped, so why did SHE stay with that piece of shit, when he raped and beat her best friend.

I just can't understand what type of person would do that, and I never will.

The ending was rushed, and a bit anti-climatic. The last scene might have suggested a sequel, but this time, I won't be reading it. ...more
